Lots of activity again, so a timely reminder - as Deb said previously, we don't sell tickets here.
Please don't say you have tickets to sell, or state a price, as it risks the forum getting into legal trouble.
We can say that we have spares, and to pm for details if interested.
Thanks!

I'll start getting excited when we know the other dates. Maybe Orange is the only one in Europe?
I wonder how long the symphonic run will last, and how many cities. It sounds like he's interspersing them with the regular gigs. I find it hard to believe that Orange would be the only one in Europe given the breadth of countries that covers, but you never know.

I think you're right, from the TECHNICART issue :
There's the Mika sound - still pop, international, and immediately effective on tracks like "Bougez" and "Sweetie Banana", but also symphonic pieces like "Passager"...
I like the idea of mixing different genres on the same record. Obviously, I come from a classical music background and I often work with symphony orchestras. There was the series of concerts I gave at the Philharmonie de Paris, and that's going to continue.
The next date for your 'Mika Philharmonique' show is scheduled for 23 June in Orange.
Yes, and after that I'll be performing in several cities around the world. I don't think we should limit ourselves in terms of musical genres, because the most important thing is to tell a story. The sound and orchestration must always be at the service of the melody and the image.

No, I wasn't fast enough, I should also work and not just buying tickets and hang around in the forum.😅
Yeah, normally I'd be at work and would have missed it until later. Called in sick yesterday and today, this cold has staged a comeback.

I'm wondering if he's planning to do more symphonic gigs and wants to post about them together, so everyone can pick the one that's best to reach for them re. time & place.
Oh god, don't TEASE me like that!

Ok the 2nd pic is definitely emerald green, but the cover shot is more of a teal blue. Blooming editors and their Photoshop...

Hi Arianna, and welcome!
I'm Andrea in the UK. Finding Mika brought me friendship and opened the world to me. It's an amazing thing.
There are lots of Italian fans here, you're in good company. I hope you enjoy it here!

The best and most relevant example I can think of for this conversation is….my back issues relate to both pain and mobility, as they include my cervical (neck) and lumbar spine from whence cometh sciatic nerves (all of them) and hips, so legs. Which effects not just walking but standing and even sitting in the wrong position. What that means is I will never ever ever be able to see Mika live. It’s more complicated but that’s the bottom line. The day I realized how important his live performances were in so many ways, and that I could never be a part of any of that, it made me sad to the bottom of my heart. Always will.
QBF, I'm so sorry to hear that.

... we just printed the flags on A4 paper, and we printed some more and distributed them at the MFC party and I think some also at the venue. There were separate flags for England, Scotland, Wales, and also the UK flag, so those from the UK could choose which one they prefer and it would be a bit more divers.
It's a lovely idea! I'm tempted to get some cloth scraps and sew a flag so it can be part of my gig kit.
I'm just not sure I want to do a UK or English flag... not overly keen on either. Hmm. Maybe a flag of the globe. 🌍

Best guess... You're joining/organizing a pride event this year, but an order of craft supplies still hasn't arrived?

You sure? It’s entirely possible that Miguel is a very gifted singer!Which raises the question... what songs does a failed 70s porn star like to sing?
Or maybe not...

Can't really remember the details, I think there was a big cruise ship, a concert was being put on and I was part of the artist support team. There were a few artists there, I remember Emma and Zazie. We were all sat chatting in a relaxed chill out area with drinks. I looked to the far left seat and... there was Mika. All good, except dream brain decided to dress him in a jauntily angled black leather bikers cap, with his curls longer around his face. A black leather jacket with the sleeves bunched up. A white vest top. A chunky silver chain. Tiny little black pleather boy shorts. Low cut boots. And... fishnet tights.
And yet... It was Mika, the dream made it work. He was laughing and joking with everyone, being his normal adorable self. I remember thinking, maybe he's wearing that to remind Emma that he's gay...
Whatever. I blame the cold germs.

Am I imagining it, or are those cartoon mushrooms on his T-shirt?
Even back then mushrooms were a thing for him!
